Wisconsin is currently divided into 8 congressional districts, each represented by a member of the United States House of Representatives. After the 2020 census, the number of Wisconsin's seats remained unchanged.

Wisconsin’s congressional districts are an example of partisan gerrymandering, in this case in favor of the Republican Party. [1] Princeton University's Gerrymandering Project gave Wisconsin's districts an overall grade of "F" with a "Significant Republican advantage". [2] [3]
